To celebrate its five-year anniversary on Broadway, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” has announced a series of celebratory events. Titled “5 Days of Magic” and slated to begin on April 19, they will include in-theater giveaways and an in-person lottery.

At the April 19 matinée performance, attendees will experience a presentation from the New York City Mayor’s Office. On April 20, a video will be released of the Broadway cast performing a moment from the production at the outdoor sky deck Edge.

Fans of the show will be welcome to attend an in-person lottery at the Lyric Theatre on April 21 beginning at 4:30 p.m. There will be 50 tickets located within the first five rows of the theater available for $5 each. The drawing will take place at 5 p.m. Those who enter the lottery will also have the chance to win additional prizes.

On April 22, audience members at both performances will receive a commemorative gift. And the April 23 performance will include special guest appearances and giveaways.

The 5 Days of Magic events come on the heels of a week-long celebration earlier this year where the production [honored each of the four Hogwarts houses](https://broadwaynews.com/2023/02/02/harry-potter-to-host-events-for-hogwarts-house-pride-week/?ref=broadwaynews.com).

Now in two acts instead of two separate parts (as it was originally staged), “Cursed Child” resumed performances on Nov. 12, 2021, after the industry-wide shutdown. The production initially opened on April 22, 2018.

The Tony Award-winning play is produced on Broadway by Sonia Friedman Productions, Colin Callender and Harry Potter Theatrical Productions.
